5.0 out of 5 stars Gutes Buch für meinen Unikurs
Reviewed in Germany on 27 October 2015
Verified Purchase
Auf diesem Buch basierte eine meiner Vorlesungen, die ich leider selten besuchen konnte, da es zu häufigen Überschneidungen kam.
Da dieses Buch detailliert & mit vielen Beispielen aufgebaut ist, viel es mir leicht den behandelten Stoff nachzuholen und zu verinnerlichen.
Des Weiteren sind die Kapitel so aufgebaut, das einem am Anfang die Ziele vermittelt werden und am Ende jedes Kapitel eine Wiederholung aufgeführt ist, mit der man sein Wissen überprüfen kann.

Dementsprechend kann ich dieses Buch definitiv empfehlen, wenn man einen Kurs zu Organisational Behavior oder ähnlichen Kursen besucht.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good

Bought this book the other day and must say that i am very impressed . Where other texts on Org behaviour are long winded and hard to follow i have so far found this book very clear and to the point.

The constant referencing to researcher and real companies has also made my report writing a whole bunch easier. For £30 quid it is so far very much worth it.

This was a required text for part of a course I'm toiling through, and I am so glad that I have it. It is clearly written and well explained with good references. -I found it really helpful. I keep it at work as more than one person has found it a useful reference. I'm happy to recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great publication
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 May 2012

I purchased this book with the intention to refer to some of its content while lecturing in organisational behaviour. However, I was not able to access the supporting resources for instructors because I am not associated to a particular university, which was a real shame. That said, the book is very informative and does provide some excellent case studies to illustrate key points in organisational life. I do not have any regrets in buying this book, it was certainly worth it!
